The bistatic keystone processing algorithm was presented in the paper to increase the coherent integration time of the echo signal scattered from the moving target in the space-based bistatic radar systems. The high speed of receiver has a severe impact on the target detection of the system. Therefore, the echo of the central target was selected as the reference signal to remove the undesired impact of receiver in the target detection of space-based bistatic radar systems. The simulation results validate the proposed algorithm.

We are going to develop a handheld wall penetrating SAR (WPSAR) to investigate the small shallowly buried objects such as thin wires, cables and so on. The WPSAR will be working very close to the wall surface, and the objects of interest sometimes buried inside the induced near-filed region of the probe. As a result, the traditional far-field SAR imaging algorithm cannot be used. Thus, a useful near-field back-projection algorithm is investigated in this paper, which backprojects the probe's aperture field into the wall, instead of backprojecting the echo signal along the wave propagation track as it is done in the traditional BP. A full wave simulation data given by CST is used to validate our algorithm. The result shows that the proposed near-field BP algorithm gives a correct imaging result while the traditional one fails.

When synthetic aperture radar (SAR) works at the squint mode with a large grazing angle, the range walk varies obviously with the slant range. The traditional SPECAN algorithm corrects the range walk only based on the central slant range. Thus there are residual range walks at range edges of the swath, which finally leads to the defocus of the image. In order to solve this problem, a modified SPECAN algorithm based on the Chirp Scaling principle is proposed in this paper. First, the received data is multiplied by Chirp Scaling factor in the two-dimension time domain to eliminate the range variation of the range walk. Then the traditional SPECAN algorithm is applied to accomplish the two-dimension focus of the image. Simulation results confirm the validity of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents a novel low complexity TOA estimation method for unknown signal under low SNR condition, especially for inner-pulse modulated signal. In this new method, received signal is firstly pre-processed by multiplying its delayed conjugation to reduce intra-pulse modulation. Then a refined coherent accumulation is applied to achieve a precise TOA estimation result. Simulation results show that this new method can achieve an accurate TOA estimation for unknown signal under low SNR condition.

Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) can realize the elevation extraction of the target. Through increasing the degree of freedom (DOF) during the topography calculation, multi-frequency InSAR technology can further achieve high-accuracy elevation reconstruction in steep terrain. Although the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method is widely used in the signal processing of multi-frequency InSAR, its performance can be influenced by phase noise. This paper proposes a creative algorithm which combines the maximum likelihood elevation estimation with the shortest sub-interval seeking operator (SSIS-MLE). It statistically averages the elevation estimation results of the MLE with class histogram, so that efficiently excludes the error estimation. Simulation results verify that this method not only maintains the high calculation efficiency of traditional MLE method, but also guarantees the high accuracy of elevation estimation.

The radar systems have been so significant for both civil use and national defense, and adopting localized processor has become critical for a country, especially for the area related to the national defense. In this paper, we utilize localized BWDSP100 as the main processor, and implement a high-speed and real-time signal processing system by using BWDSP100 + FPGA framework. We use FPGA to realize the interface conversions and extensions, which enhance the reading bandwidth of the DDR2 interface from 235MB/s to 562MB/s. Besides that, we also integrate highspeed serial buses, such as PCIe interface of 243MB/s and SRIO interface of 344MB/s, for communications in or between boards. The system has been used in several projects, and works well.

In this paper, we focus on the widely-used radix-22 Decimation-In-Frequency (DIF) Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm. A variable-length, controllable-precision FFT processor is proposed. The processor can perform 16, 64, 256 and 1024 point FFT/IFFT and provide flexible wordlength scaling modes for different FFT stages. Thus, the processor is suitable for different precision and FFT length requirements in various applications. Aiming at high throughput performance, single-path delay feedback (SDF) pipeline architecture is adopted. The design is testified on Xilinx Virtex6 xc6vcx240t FPGA. Accordingly, we make a clear comparison between the proposed design and Xilinx FFT v7.1. Our design achieves better signal-to-quantizationnoise ratio (SQNR) property and shorter pipeline latency. Meanwhile, the occupied resource is approximately the same. Moreover, SQNR performance of different FFT length and wordlength scaling modes is analysed.

High-resolution SAR are of great value in remote sensing nowadays. To make good use of the characteristics of high-resolution SAR images to detect targets, we present here a region growing method. First, we calculate a threshold according to the given PFA to pick up bright pixels as the seeds. Second, we define the criteria which is mainly based on the relationship between pixels in a high-resolution SAR image and then execute the growing process. Finally, we exclude false alarms according to some geometry features. The experiments and results show that it is a constructive and effective way using region growing algorithm to detect ships in high-resolution SAR images.

Compared to the traditional SAR imaging algorithm, Back Projection(BP) algorithm is an accurate point-by-point imaging radar algorithm based on time-domain, with simple principle and without any approximation error in the imaging process. However, because of intensive computation and low efficiency, it's a new challengetostorage to capacity, throughput and processing ability of DSPs, a single DSP is not enough to meet these demands. So a parallel implementation method of BP algorithm based on TMS320C6678 DSP is proposed in this *** put forward a large point FFT multi-core parallel processing method on 2/4/8 cores what is frequently used in BP algorithm, and a multi-core synchronization method based on distributed memory. Finally using the measured data, we verify the parallel method can greatly enhance the multi-core parallelism, and the real-time performance of BP algorithm has been significantly improved.
